Designed as Greg Connell’s signature senior bat, this model focuses on direct energy transfer, strong barrel response, and the kind of end-loaded power many experienced SSUSA hitters look for when trying to maximize distance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"422\" data-end=\"882\"\u003eThe one-piece composite construction creates a firmer feel through contact compared to two-piece designs, allowing stronger players to fully feel the barrel working through the zone. Easton pairs that construction with a Triple Wall barrel design that helps generate aggressive pop while still maintaining a forgiving sweet spot across the 12.75-inch barrel length. The result is a bat that feels powerful without becoming overly unforgiving on slight mishits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"884\" data-end=\"1281\"\u003eThe loaded weighting shifts additional mass toward the barrel, helping power hitters generate added momentum and carry when they can consistently get the barrel moving. Players who prefer balanced bats or softer flex may find this model more demanding, but hitters with good swing strength and controlled mechanics will likely appreciate the heavier barrel presence and direct feedback at contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1283\" data-end=\"1585\"\u003eThe 150 Handle Flex rating keeps the feel stiff and stable through the swing, which many senior power hitters prefer for maximizing barrel control and energy transfer. Compared to softer-flex two-piece senior bats, the ESS6EMPC1L delivers a more rigid response with less handle movement during contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1587\" data-end=\"1616\"\u003eThis bat is a strong fit for:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"1618\" data-end=\"2042\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1kdhn21\" data-start=\"1618\" data-end=\"1690\"\u003eSenior slowpitch power hitters who prefer stiff one-piece construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"ipuc1q\" data-start=\"1691\" data-end=\"1758\"\u003ePlayers looking for loaded weighting and stronger barrel momentum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1pkirk2\" data-start=\"1759\" data-end=\"1829\"\u003eExperienced SSUSA hitters wanting maximum barrel feedback at contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"7qjsvn\" data-start=\"1830\" data-end=\"1905\"\u003eHitters who like firmer-feeling senior bats over softer two-piece designs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1fets77\" data-start=\"1906\" data-end=\"1974\"\u003ePlayers seeking a large sweet spot with aggressive barrel response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"17k5ibz\" data-start=\"1975\" data-end=\"2042\"\u003eFans of Greg Connell’s signature senior bat setup and swing style\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2044\" data-end=\"2278\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eThe ESS6EMPC1L is clearly built for hitters who want a more traditional power-hitter feel in a senior bat — stiff, barrel-heavy, and designed to reward strong swings with serious carry and exit velocity potential once fully broken in.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Big Dawg","offers":[{"title":"Bat Rolling (Ultimate Break-in) \/ 25.5oz \/ Standard Processing (3-5 Days Free)","offer_id":50728278884598,"sku":null,"price":299.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bat Rolling (Ultimate Break-in) \/ 25.5oz \/ Rush Processing (1-2 Days +$49)","offer_id":50728278917366,"sku":null,"price":349.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bat Rolling (Ultimate Break-in) \/ 26oz \/ Standard Processing (3-5 Days Free)","offer_id":50728278950134,"sku":null,"price":299.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bat Rolling (Ultimate Break-in) \/ 26oz \/ Rush Processing (1-2 Days +$49)","offer_id":50728278982902,"sku":null,"price":349.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bat Rolling (Ultimate Break-in) \/ 27oz \/ Standard Processing (3-5 Days Free)","offer_id":50728279015670,"sku":null,"price":299.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bat Rolling (Ultimate Break-in) \/ 27oz \/ Rush Processing (1-2 Days +$49)","offer_id":50728279048438,"sku":null,"price":349.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bat Shaving\/ Bat Rolling\/ Polymer Coating -
